Queensland Association of Gifted and Talented Children (QAGTC), South Branch meet each month at Robertson State School, Boardroom. This is a support group which caters for parents of gifted children. The group plans activities and presentation which respond to the needs of both parents and children.

The much anticipated follow-up to the original movie 2e:The Twice Exceptional has arrived. Come along, grab some popcorn, and watch the movie surrounded by parents and teachers interested in supporting Twice Exceptional children.

Young people with well-developed emotional intelligence (EQ) earn higher grades, stay in school for longer and make healthier choices. In fact, emotional intelligence is a greater predictor of a child’s overall success in later years (relationships, career, health, general effectiveness and quality of life) than their IQ (Intelligence Quotient). What that means is that regardless of a child’s IQ, it is crucial for parents and teachers to help children build their emotional intelligence.

Join Melissa as she explains what emotional intelligence is; why we need it and how we get it.
